What is the area of a rectangle when the sides have four different lengths?

A rectangle is generally defined as a quadrilateral with four right angles. No rectangle can have four different side lengths by that definition. Finding the area of such a shape is therefore impossible.


How do you find the perimeter of a 3d rectangle?

In order to find the perimeter of a 3D rectangle you must gather the lengths of the known sides, calculate the missing rectangular values, and use the formula for perimeter.


We are interested in the dimensions of a certain rectangle. This rectangle has length twice the side of the square and width three units less than its sides of this square. If the two areas are equal?

The rectangle is 12 units by 3 units.


How do you calculate the dimensions of a rectangle if you know the perimeter and the length?

A rectangle by definition has two pairs of sides with equal length. Since perimeter equals the length of all the sides. The equation for the perimeter of a rectangle could be thought of as: 2L + 2W = P Where L represents the length of one side of the rectangle and W represents the length of the adjacent (next to) side of the rectangle. If you know the length of one side and the perimeter, plug those values in as L and P and then solve for W. That will give you L and W which are the dimensions of the rectangle.


What is the length and the width of a rectangle with a perimeter of 36 units?

A rectangle with a perimeter of 36 units can have sides of any length as long as the lengths of the two differently-sized sides are equal to 18. For example, a rectangle with sides of 10 units and 8 units (don't forget to state what these units are, whether they are inches or centimetres or any other similar measurement), would have a perimeter of 36.
